Virat Kohli saw such a 'bad day' after 10 years, ICC gave shocking news

Virat Kohli is considered one of the best batsmen of the current era but in recent times, this player's fortunes are in trouble. Virat Kohli has failed miserably in the last two Test series. First against Bangladesh and then against New Zealand, Virat's bat did not work and now this legend is suffering the consequences of this. Actually, ICC has announced the Test ranking and in this Virat Kohli has also been out of the list of top 20 batsmen. After a long period of 10 years, Virat Kohli has seen such a bad day in his career.

Virat Kohli got a big shock

Virat Kohli has slipped to 22nd position in the latest ICC Test rankings. This was the fate of Virat Kohli after his poor performance in the England tour in 2014. However, the big thing is that Virat Kohli made a great comeback after that and it is expected that this player will do something similar in the Australia tour. However, all this is not so easy for Virat Kohli because he is really in very bad form.

Virat Kohli's recent form is bad

Virat Kohli has played 6 Test matches this year and he has been able to score only 250 runs at an average of 22.72. Only one half-century has come from his bat. Last year was great for Virat. He was able to score 671 runs in 8 Tests but his form was very poor from 2020 to 2022. Virat's Test average in 2020 was 19.33. His average in 2021 was 28.21. In 2022, this player was able to score runs at an average of 26.50 only. That means Virat's batting average has been less than 30 four times out of the last five years, which is really a matter of concern.
